Hello!

And welcome back to the Curious Kid podcast.

We got curious about planets over three and a half years ago all the way back in episode 67.

We learned a few things about each of the planets in that episode.

One thing that we learned in that episode is that there is only one planet we know of that provides a safe and comfortable environment for humans.

And that planet, of course, is Earth.

Because we have only one planet to call home, it's really important that we take really good care of it. The same way you would

clean your room, or you might chip in to clean your house, wouldn't it be nice if we can all do a little

bit to help make sure our planet is as clean as can be? Let's learn more. Mailbag!

Mailbag! We love your show. We listen to your show. Mail bag. Mail bag.

We love your show.

We listen to your show every time we get in the car.

I'm curious about pollution, how long it would take to walk across the whole world, and why barrier islands protect the coast.

And also, apples and matzah, from Sebastian and Charlotte of Miami, Florida.

What an awesome topic suggestion. Knowing about pollution and what we can do to help battle pollution is really important. We can't wait to learn a lot about pollution for Sebastian and Charlotte this week.

Many of us probably have an idea of what pollution is.

But what if I told you that there are nine types of pollution, including some I had never

heard of before researching for this episode.

So chances are you are going to learn a couple of things about pollution you never knew.

Olivia, what's the question of the week?

People buy lots of bottled water, and lots of those water bottles don't end up getting recycled,

leading to pollution.
